Microsoft has 2 nice services. Very good experiences http://mailcall.spaces.live.com/blog/ http://skydrive.live.com/
Yes, Skydrive is perfect to store your data in cloud. just like a 25 GB hard drive in space. Can store any file any stuff..
These are great resources for driving spiders to a site - post links on them that point to your main site and yahoo 360 or my.yahoo, post links on those yahoo properties that point to a google knol, google profile, and google page, then link to the MS sites from the google sites.
I love MS good to see they are coming up with new things though I must admit gmail has a better interface then hotmail so google has an upper hand haha
Are you just repeating something that someone else has said or are you speaking from experience? Doing what I described helps me to get spidered quickly.
